The English Bulldog is a gentle and calm soul that gets along well with everyone. But it wasn't always that way. They were originally bred to be very ferocious and tenacious. Today's Bulldog is patient and loving and a good choice for families with children or other pets including cats. They enjoy playing though they do tend to tired easily and early. And although they are loyal and loving family members, protectors they are not. The English Bulldog is more likely to observe or even sleep than to attack a stranger.
The English Bulldog looks exactly like what you picture when you think of a bulldog. This is it. Short, wide, muscular with an almost non-existent snout and Winston Churchill jowls. They stand only 12 - 15 inches tall but can weight as much as 60 pounds or more.They come in every doggie color except black and usually have several different colors forming an irregular pattern on the short, stiff coat.
